To support stewardship of the land, the City recognizes the importance of this strong relationship. So this meeting is being called to order at 6.01. And we'll just do the roll call. Could you please say your name and raise your hand? I think that's what we have to do. Renee Robert. Linda Mitchell. Kara Kfunck. And Tara Rickaby. So we have quorum. All right, so when it's time for the public comments, I'll address the participant by the name that was recorded with the Secretary-Treasurer at the beginning of the Committee of Adjustment meeting. Once your name has been called, please stand up to the microphone. You don't have to stand up, you can sit. There's nobody attending virtually, right? Decisions will be mailed or emailed to the applicant, agent , and to all other interested parties who have provided their mailing address and/or email address to th …
